Chapter 0354 Danmen Prodigy, Treasure Boy

Today’s second update: Chapter 354!

There are two more updates today!

…

Seeing this, Cai Lun quickly came to the rescue of his junior brother and said: "My junior brother's talent is obvious to all. Even our senior brother is probably a little behind him!"

"Although we call him Junior Brother, the relationship between him and Master is only that of father and son, and he did not become a disciple like us senior brothers. Master once said that Junior Brother... is not suitable to inherit him. The art of swordsmithing!"

Hearing this, Xu Kun glanced at the Hanyue Sword that Chi had just crafted in his hand!

This knife is not only of B-level perfect quality, but also an equipment suitable for level 20 melee physical warriors!

Based on Chi's previous hostility towards him, even if he was confident of winning against him, he would definitely choose the most beautiful way to win!

It is human nature to choose the type of equipment you are good at and cast it!

"Do you like making knives?" Xu Kun asked.

His red eyes lit up, as if he had found a soulmate: "Yes, I like swords that are large and ingenious but not workmanlike. My wish in this life is to forge a magic sword that can be as good as the two magic swords that my father and mother worked together to forge! "

The sword is the king of a hundred weapons, and the sword is the king of a hundred weapons. Chi did not embark on the sword-making journey just because his parents were excellent swordsmiths!

However, a middle-aged man with an upright expression said, "Junior brother is different from us!"

"If we say that we became disciples of the Sword Pool Holy Land just to learn Master's sword-making skills and create a high-quality Qingquan Sword, which is proof of our talent in sword-making, he was just doing it out of necessity. It’s fun, just do it!”

"Junior brother is not very interested in sword-making. He prefers large, skillful and unworkable swords, so he will put less thought into the casting that he is not interested in. Otherwise, with his talent, even in sword-making The talent is even better, and he won’t just create a high-quality Qingquan Sword!”

"Third Senior Brother, you..." Chi was embarrassed by what this middle-aged man said!

If Chi, who was competing with Xu Kun in casting skills, would have dismissed the middle-aged man's preaching words and continued to go his own way, but now he has woken up and realized his true intention, and he has a deep regret. !

You know, when he advanced his casting skills and made the Qingquan Sword that all his brothers put in countless efforts, he didn't take it seriously at all!

The final result was that the dreams of all the senior brothers who expected him to surpass the only perfect quality Qingquan Sword of his senior brother came to nothing!

Thinking about it now, he really deserved to die back then!

This middle-aged man was the one who previously commented on Xu Kun's metal forging and was somewhat dissatisfied with Chi's method of showing off his skills!

"Junior brother, it wasn't my turn to teach you, but the competition specially arranged by Master today is not only a test for little friend Xu Kun, but also a great spur for you!"

"If you haven't understood your shortcomings until now, then all the good intentions of Master and Master will be in vain!"

Chi did not retort as usual, but lowered his head in guilt.

"Your talent is very good. Even among all the senior brothers, only the senior brother can compete with you. But if you are proud of your talent, then in the future, I am afraid you will not be able to become as great as the master." Master, if you want to be on par with your master, you are still far behind!"

"For example, your multiple forging methods are too focused on showing off your skills and neglecting the casting itself. If you had forged those metals carefully before, would it be possible, like little friend Xu Kun, to forge a B-level forging plan? Where’s the A-level Hanyue Sword?”

"Third Senior Brother, I know I was wrong!" Chi lowered his head very sincerely.

This scene made Xu Kun extremely surprised!

What background did these three senior brothers have that they could preach like this to the young master of the Holy Land?

This way of teaching elders to younger ones is not like the communication between peers. Didn't you see that the second senior brother Cai Lun didn't speak so seriously?

And no one, including the second senior brother Cai Lun, refuted his words!

"This is...?"

After the middle-aged man finished lecturing Chi, he turned his head and smiled at Xu Kun, his eyes as satisfied as he wanted.

"I am Tao Hongjing, the third disciple of Master Anju. My dear friend, this is very polite!"

Cai Lun said at the same time: "The third junior brother is also an A-level caster!"

Xu Kun responded politely at first, but the doubts in his mind were even deeper!

He thought that this third senior brother was at least an S-class casting master like Cai Lun. In this case, it would be reasonable to preach harshly to Chi Dao!

But he turned out to be just an... A-level caster?

You know, when Cai Lun talked about his flashy seventh junior brother Lei Huan earlier, he was very dissatisfied with his status as an A-level forger!

Why was he so full of praise when introducing his third junior brother who was also an A-level caster?

As if seeing his doubts, Cai Lun said with a smile in his eyes: "Little friend, I don't know. Although my third junior brother has only reached A level in casting skills, his talent in sword making is... Second only to Senior Brother, when his casting skills advanced to B level, he almost made a perfect quality Qingquan Sword!"

So, Xu Kun thought that the reason why this third senior brother was recognized by Cai Lun was because of his talent in sword making, but he didn't expect that this third senior brother's ability was much more than that!

"Besides, for my third junior brother, learning casting is just his hobby, and it's just one of his not-so-top-notch secondary jobs!"

Xu Kun was stunned, what the hell? A-level casting is just a hobby that is not well learned?

"Second Senior Brother, please don't praise me to death. A Taoist priest is not as good as a Taoist spirit. In front of little friend Xu Kun, my achievements may be nothing!" Tao Hongjing said modestly.

"Third Junior Brother, please don't be too modest. Today, although it was a friendly competition, Junior Brother, as the most talented caster among our disciples, fell behind in an unfair competition. If we don’t save some face, I, the Sword Pond Holy Land, will not be able to save my face!”

Tao Hongjing shook his head speechlessly. He didn't care much about these false reputations. If he lost, he would lose. There was nothing to fight for, but naturally he would not refute what his senior brother said!

"Um...Grandmaster Cai, what kind of riddle are you trying to solve?" Xu Kun asked doubtfully.

Cai Lun smiled and said: "Our third junior brother is incredible. In addition to being our master, one of the third generation disciples of Ou Yezi, the first divine craftsman of the human race, he is also the first alchemist of all races, the ancestor of medicine Shennong. The leader of the third generation of disciples!”

Xu Kun's eyes widened!

A third-generation disciple of Yaozu, the master’s senior brother!

Each of these words is shocking!

Compared with Ou Yezi's status as the number one divine craftsman in the human race, Yaozu Shennong's status among all races is higher. Ou Yezi is only the number one in the human race, but Shennong is truly the number one among all races!

With Tao Hongjing's age, whether he is doing the casting or refining medicine, he is naturally a third-generation disciple of these powerful disciples!

But the term "Senior Brother" is incredible!

Placed under Ou Yezi's sect, he must be Ganjiang, the senior brother who is highly regarded by all his disciples and is the only one who has created the perfect Qingquan Sword!

Ganjiang is Ou Yezi's chief disciple, and his chief disciple is naturally also the head disciple!

But he is also the eldest disciple of the sect. Because of the gap between his master's status, Tao Hongjing's status among all races and the human race is naturally higher than that of his eldest brother in the Sword Pond Holy Land!

After Cai Lun finished speaking, Tao Hongjing said helplessly: "Brother, I'm exaggerating. How can I, a mere S-level alchemist, prepare medicine as the head disciple of the ancestral sect? There are quite a few god-level alchemists among the younger brothers of the Alchemy Sect!"

"Third Junior Brother, you don't have to be self-effacing now. These words are not what I said, but are recognized by the art of refining medicine!"

"Yes, you are right. Although some of your junior brothers in the Alchemy Sect have become god-level alchemists, you ask them, who can be like you, and can already guarantee 50% of the S-level alchemy skills? The success rate of refining an SS-level divine elixir?"

"If I remember correctly, your age, compared to the group of juniors in Danmen who are older than me, you are just a baby, right?"

Tao Hongjing rarely smiled awkwardly!

Cai Lun highly praised his third junior brother, and then added: "There is no priority in learning, and the master is the teacher. The Dan sect is different from ours. Here, we are ranked based on seniority, and all the juniors are willing to call me a useless old man." Senior brother, you are different. The fact that you can stand out from a group of old guys has proven your talent in alchemy. For others, it is an insurmountable gap. You stepped over it, like a horse on a flat river, with extreme ease, and achieved god-level alchemy. It’s just a matter of time for the pharmacist!”

Xu Kun understood it from the conversation between the two!

If Tao Hongjing were to simply talk about the level of alchemy refining, he would not be able to become the third generation master of the Yao Ancestor Sect with just S-level alchemy refining skills!

But when comparing alchemy skills, if you only look at grades, that would be too narrow!

Compared with the casting technique, the success rate of Yajiu Craftsman, a disciple of Ou Yezi's divine craftsman, in creating artifacts is only one-third, but his casting technique is indeed SS-level casting technique!

Come to think of it, the success rate of ordinary SS-level alchemists in refining SS-level divine elixirs is about the same!

But Tao Hongjing, who only has S-level alchemy skills, can guarantee a 50% success rate in refining divine elixirs. This alone proves his greatness!

"It's just relying on external things. It's really not worthy of your bragging, senior brother!" Tao Hongjing said as usual, neither humble nor arrogant.

This time, it was not Cai Lun who praised him, but the rather dull and fierce-looking Brother Hao who spoke: "Third Senior Brother, I cannot agree with what you said. The foreign object you are referring to is the same as this little Xu Kun." The flame of the same level as the ultimate fire Samadhi True Fire that you have mastered, but wasn’t this flame something you obtained and absorbed only after a narrow escape?”

"Junior Brother Hao, why are you... ugh!" Tao Hongjing is such a jerk. He doesn't want to pretend, and all the fellow apprentices have to help him pretend!

Xu Kun understood clearly that these people seemed to be praising Tao Hongjing, but in fact they were using Tao Hongjing's identity to bolster their reputation that Sword Pond Holy Land had just lost!

These rough guys have a clear mind and even Chi loses compared to casting talent, so we will be convinced of their defeat!

But our Sword Pond Holy Land is not without talents. Tao Hongjing is the treasure boy of their Sword Pond Holy Land!

Xu Kun, who is used to seeing his uncle Yang's 800 tricks, said that of course, little kiss would not have such a low emotional intelligence to expose these people's thoughts!

However, Chi, who had lost all his arrogance, whispered in a low voice: "Well, we are all one family... Actually, there is no need for you to show off your third senior brother in front of Xu Kun like this!"
